When Michael Beattie became Deputy Chairman of Stewards for the Hunter And North Western Racing Association in 1985 he wasn't made welcome by all of his new colleagues. In fact one senior member of staff was clearly unhappy about the appointment of the bloke he called  “the brash young steward from Grafton”. Beattie's lifelong tendency to call a spade a spade has earned him a reputation as a tough, hard operator- some have branded him a “bully”. Others have testified to his fairness and his insistence on listening to every shred of available evidence  Few have ever left a Beattie inquiry without knowing exactly where they stood. The sixty six year old has swapped stewarding for racing administration on a couple of occasions over more than fifty years in the industry. This is a podcast with a straight shooter who tells his life story with candour, humour and a touch of showmanship. Michael talks about his good fortune in landing back in his beloved hometown of Grafton as CEO of the Clarence River Jockey Club.  He talks of the dozen Grafton Cups he's overseen since returning to the northern rivers. He's a great admirer of the 2022 Cup winner Arapaho. Michael talks of early days in Grafton when his favourite entertainment was the Friday night ABC television coverage of the Harold Park trots. He couldn't wait for Fridays to come. He revisits the 1971 Miracle Mile win by freakish Western Australian pacer Mount Eden. The performance made a lasting impression on the budding racing aficionado. He takes us back to the heady days when he'd climb a Jacaranda tree outside the Grafton racecourse to watch the horses come down the straight. Finally his father Les agreed to take him to the races as a paying customer. Michael's a good storyteller and regales us with some entertaining yarns- like the one about his offer to a prominent trainer who always seemed to be short on helpers. He's always been able to open doors. At just fourteen years of age in 1973, he put a proposal to the four race clubs who used the Grafton racecourse. We're talking about 37 race meetings a year. Next thing young Beattie was writing all of the racebook form for those four clubs.  Michael tells the story of a winner on Ramornie day 1973 owned by a respected Doctor who wanted him to strap the horse no matter what. You'll enjoy the rest of the story. He takes us through the rigorous procedure he had to follow in quest of a job with NSW Government Railways. It was worth the trouble. The former international steward looks back on his appointment as a cadet with the Northern Rivers Racing Association (NRRA), and an introduction to the tough task of handicapping. Michael's desire to spread his wings saw him apply for an important new job in 1985. He was 26 when appointed Deputy Chairman of Stewards with the Hunter and North Western Racing Association. He remains grateful for the enormous experience he gained over fourteen years. His first stint as a racing administrator came in 1999 when he successfully applied for the CEO's role with the Gosford Race Club. He gained invaluable experience over almost seven years. Michael reflects on a conversation with trainer Joe Janiak who'd indicated he might set rising sprint star Takeover Target for the 2004 Pacesetter Stakes. That conversation took a few twists and turns. Michael looks back on Gosford Committee meetings when he persuaded board members to consider purchasing more real estate around the racecourse. He remains gratified that there's now sufficient space for Racing NSW to develop a huge training complex in the future. He reflects on the surprise phone call from former high profile steward John Schreck advising him of an upcoming position with the Macau jockey Club. Michael took the job but opted out of his contract less than a year later. The reason for his change of mind is perfectly understandable. It was back to Sydney and a new role as Chairman Of Stewards for Harness Racing NSW at precisely the time the dreaded EI virus made its presence felt in Sydney. Michael takes us through some highlights and lowlights of his time at the helm of harness racing. He recalls another surprise approach from the Macau Jockey Club who were keen to get him back for another stint. The offer came shortly before the infamous “green light scandal” dealt the trotting industry a crushing blow. Michael responds to the reputation he's carried for years as a very tough man to deal with in the stewards room. He doesn't deny the claims but believes his fairness more than counterbalances his stern disciplinary measures. He talks about his current online involvement in the buying and selling of local thoroughbred bloodstock. To date he's moved some 400 horses for northern rivers owners. He has the backing of the CRJC Committee who are delighted to see most of the money being recycled in the region. This is the story of a country kid who made things happen from a very early age. It's unlikely anybody could tell it better than the man himself. A very entertaining podcast from a true blue Aussie racing tragic who happened to be blessed with multiple talents.  He didn't waste one of them.

In this episode of the Dover Download podcast, Deputy City Manager Christopher Parker chats with George Maglaras, a long-time Dover public servant who served on the Planning Board in the 1980s, the first in a series of episodes looking back at the Planning Board over the decades. Maglaras discusses his transition from the state legislature and chairing the Community Development program to joining the Planning Board during what he calls a "transitional decade" for Dover. He explains how Dover was facing economic challenges with the decline of manufacturing jobs and vacant mills downtown.Maglaras shares how the Planning Board under his leadership worked to change zoning ordinances to encourage adaptive reuse of historic buildings, particularly for residential use on upper floors. He discusses controversial decisions like rezoning residential neighborhoods to allow more housing units and revitalizing the Miracle Mile shopping area. Throughout the conversation, Maglaras emphasizes his vision of leveraging private investment to revitalize Dover, create housing opportunities, and keep residents spending their money locally. He notes that in the 1980s, 79% of Dover residents' disposable income was being spent outside the community.The interview reveals Maglaras's perspective as someone with deep family roots in Dover who nonetheless pushed for progressive changes against resistance from the "old guard." After leaving the Planning Board in 1987, Maglaras was elected to the Board of County Commissioners and later served as Mayor of Dover, continuing his public service career.In This Week in Dover History, we learn about Arthur D. Maglaras, George's uncle, who passed away in April 1987. Arthur was a city councilor and state representative known for his dedication to his constituents and held court over what some considered Dover's “second City Hall.”

¡Bienvenidos, remakers, a otro inolvidable “Lunes de Videoclub”! En esta ocasión nos reunimos para hablar de “70 minutos para huir” (1988), una producción tan curiosa como original que nos sitúa en los últimos instantes de la humanidad, al borde de la extinción por una catástrofe nuclear… o al menos, eso parece. La cinta, escrita y dirigida por Steve De Jarnatt, juega con la ambigüedad y la incertidumbre de principio a fin. Lo que comienza como una comedia romántica protagonizada por Anthony Edwards y Mare Winningham, pronto da un giro radical y se convierte en una trepidante carrera contrarreloj para sobrevivir a una amenaza nuclear de dudosa veracidad. A partir de esta premisa, la película nos plantea reflexiones profundas sobre el destino inevitable, el papel del azar, las decisiones que tomamos cuando la vida pende de un hilo, y los peligros que conlleva la difusión descontrolada de la información. Como veis, remakers, temas nada banales, que se escondían en muchas de esas joyas olvidadas del cine ochentero. Para desentrañar todo esto —y también repasar aspectos técnicos, artísticos y muchas curiosidades— nos damos cita el apresurado Óscar Cabrera y el impetuoso Juan Pablo “Videoclubsero”, con la intención de que durante aproximadamente 70 minutos, vuestra adrenalina se dispare… pero sin necesidad de una cuenta atrás nuclear.

Thanks to a listener donation, Mike and Mike are taking the time to look back on the films scored by Tangerine Dream! In this retrospective, we're talking six films that we felt were representative of the Tangerine Dream filmography: Sorcerer, Thief, Risky Business, Legend, Near Dark, and Miracle Mile - plus we toss in a couple of extras too!

As a proud mother, Dorothy was all ready to share very specific stories of when she thought June "should listen to her mother," including her junior high musical instrument selection, Orange Bowl Queen/King Orange Bowl Game in Miami, taking a job at the "nascent" CNN news network and not marrying her first husband. "Greetings From Paradise" began as a screen play and it turned into a gift from June to Coral Gables. It is a one act, 80 minute play written by June Thomson Morris, making it's debut at Miracle Theater on Miracle Mile.     The roaring 20's happened big time in Coral Gables and the Miami area. At that time, the Prohibition was not taken seriously at all. June says "the booze was pouring in with miles of unprotected coastlines between Bermuda and Cuba." 1925 the great Florida Land Boom -no more income tax nor inheritance tax so everyone from up north, who had money, flocked to the Miami area.In September of 1926, a hurricane leveled Miami and left a path  of destructionJune's Grandmother, Lucy, was there and she experienced the loss of all that had been created and developed because of this one horrific storm. Dorothy as a proud mother, explains that by writing this play, June has done something that no one else has ever done. It's the first time that anyone's written a historically accurate telling of the story of Miami.Coral Gables is also dedicating a park in Dorothy's honor. It's going to be the first theme park in Coral Gables and named "Dorothy." Dorothy was raised in Peekskill, New York  where in the 1800's, L. Frank Baum, the author of the Wizard of Oz, attended  the Peekskill Military Academy for two years. When L. Frank Baum was looking for his new school, a gentleman told him to "follow the yellow brink road" and you'll find the academy. Link for June Thomson, the 84th Orange Bowl Queen: https://historicimages.com/products/rsd95985?srsltid=AfmBOooAS8vHUWdxA6tHyn9uct7CFkqk3nTcg1pd35GjgpURIbfo3UjzSocial Media Links: June Thomson MorrisFB:JUNE THOMSON MORRISIG: JUNEMORRIS6LINKEDIN:JUNE THOMSON MORRISTHREADS:miamidgalumnaeSocial Media Links for Dorothy Thomsom:FB: Dorothy ThomsonIG: Birddot1934  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Welcome back to Watch With Jen. Just in time for the fifth anniversary of the podcast (which officially began on March 3, 2020), I'm releasing the first of at least a two-part episode devoted to L.A. Movies. Like everyone else, I watched in horror as the Santa Ana wind wildfires ripped through a city that I dearly love at the start of 2025. Unable to contribute financially to the many worthy charities and Go Fund Me accounts that were launched in its wake, nor volunteer on the ground from where I live in Phoenix, I figured the next best thing that I could do was to pay tribute to some of the wonderfully rich, diverse, & creatively inspiring films that have been made in the city. My earnest hope is that it might inspire more productions to shoot there in the future (which would bring necessary jobs back to L.A.) and also to give listeners a nice little reprieve from the stresses of this impossibly difficult year. Each week has felt like its own horror movie for so many people in my orbit, including myself. Our inaugural episode for season six features a staggeringly great lineup of artists & film minds. You'll hear from CALIFORNIA BEAR author Duane Swierczynski on JACKIE BROWN, Senior Vice President of The Black List Kate Hagen on MIRACLE MILE, film critic and UC Denver professor Walter Chaw on THE DRIVER & HICKEY & BOGGS, and WHO INVITED THEM filmmaker and author Duncan Birmingham on SWINGERS. A feature length tour of Los Angeles in the movies, I hope you enjoy the launch of Season 6. And as we head into my favorite season, perhaps it'll inspire you to get ready to visit the City of Angels again or at the very least, eagerly anticipate the second part of these talks which wander into Lynchian and Friedkin territory. Thank you so much for joining me these past five years; we'll be hitting the 250th episode of the podcast this season which is mind-boggling to me & I couldn't do it without your support.Originally Posted on Patreon (3/3/25) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/123479696Theme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music Archive Shop Watch With Jen logo Merchandise in Logo Designer Kate Gabrielle's Threadless Shop (+ Direct Link to the Mug) Donate to the Pod via Ko-fi

Miami native Stephen Bittel joined us on the podcast, bringing not just his insights but a vintage 1996 bottle of Clos Lascombes to share. Stephen's story begins with his roots in South Florida, graduating from Palmetto High before heading north to Bowdoin College in Maine. Post-graduation, he explored Europe on a Thomas Watson Fellowship, but his return to Miami marked the start of a remarkable career.  While attending the University of Miami School of Law, Stephen worked full-time at a commercial real estate firm to make ends meet. What began as a job to pay the bills quickly evolved into a passion for business. By his second year, a pivotal moment arrived when his firm offered to switch him from a salary to commission-based pay. Instead of taking the offer, Stephen bet on himself — leaving the firm to launch Terranova Corporation from his house in Coral Gables.  Fast forward to today: Stephen has grown Terranova into a powerhouse, becoming the largest property owner on both Miracle Mile and Lincoln Road. Beyond his own success, the company has served as a launching pad for many alumni who've made significant waves in South Florida's real estate scene.  Tune in to hear Stephen's journey — from his first deal to shaping two of the 305's most iconic streets.Connect with usLooking to dive deeper into the Miami commercial real estate scene?

Nat, Cody, and Robert take the call and discover the meet-cute apocalypse courtesy of MIRACLE MILE. Time tracks: 0:00:00 - MIRACLE MILE Discussion 0:56:28 - Next Movie and Outro

In this week's edition of the News Man Weekly podcast, Richland Source City Editor Carl Hunnell is joined by Mark Sebastian Jordan, local author/playwright/actor/director/historian and journalist. The two old friends talk about Jordan's newest book, “Get Busy Living: Doing Time at Shawshank,” a behind-the-scenes look at his work as an extra in the popular movie, “Shawshank Redemption” and how that effort helped to shape his life going forward. Hunnell is also joined by executive producer Zac Hiser and video producer Grant Ritchey as they riff on the news of the week – including the City of Mansfield going to court to seek damages against Lucas contractor for the improper demolition of the former YMCA on Park Avenue West; how weekend speed bumps led to a quieter summer on the Miracle Mile in Mansfield; how a Saturday night OVI checkpoint went Saturday night locally; and how Mansfield Mayor Jodie Perry is trying to figure out best to spend the city's remaining $2 million in American Rescue Plan Act funds.

Miami is a city steeped in magic and mystery, from its rich cultural history and vibrant culture. Yet, amidst the glittering facade of glamour and vibrancy lies a darker chapter in Miami's history—the Cocaine Cowboys era—a tale of excess, danger, and intrigue that left an indelible mark on the cityscape. But beyond the myths and misconceptions, Miami beckons with its eclectic neighborhoods, picturesque beaches, and a wealth of cultural treasures waiting to be explored. Join us as we uncover the allure of Miami, from its pulsating nightlife to its serene hideaways, offering a glimpse into a world where magic and reality intertwine.The Birth of the "Magic City"Miami is often referred to as the "Magic City" due to its rapid growth and development in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The term "Magic City" was coined by a local newspaper editor named Julia Tuttle. She created the term to describe the incredible transformation of Miami from a small, remote outpost into a thriving metropolis almost overnight.Julia Tuttle was a prominent Miami pioneer. She originally visited her parents in South Florida in 1875 and fell in love with what is now known as Biscayne Bay. She later purchased 640 acres at the mouth of the Miami River and returned as a widow to live there in 1891. She convinced Henry Flagler to bring his railroad to the Miami River, and over seven years she lived there, she worked to build the community and had a lot to do with transforming the region. In 1896, Miami was incorporated as a city. From there, the city experienced a significant boom in population, infrastructure, and economy during the early 20th century, fueled by the Florida East Coast Railway. The nickname still fits the city's vibrant atmosphere, diverse culture, and ongoing growth and innovation.Cuban Influence on MiamiCuba has had a significant influence on Miami, particularly due to waves of Cuban migration to the city, especially after the Cuban Revolution in 1959. It's shaped the city's identity, culture, economy, and politics in so many ways.PoliticsCuban exiles and their descendants have been actively involved in local, state, and national politics, shaping policies and perspectives on issues related to Cuba and Latin America. You feel like you are in another country!Cultural InfluenceCuban culture is in music and art, cuisine and language. Salsa music, mambo, and Afro-Cuban rhythms have bled into Miami's music scene, and Cuban artists have made the city vibrant and contributed greatly to the colorful art.CuisineCuban cuisine is all over Miami. The city has numerous Cuban restaurants and cafes serving authentic Cuban food. Some signature Cuban dishes include sandwiches, picadillo, and arroz con pollo.ArchitectureCuban influence & heritage can be seen in so much of Miami's architecture, particularly in neighborhoods like Little Havana - colorful Art Deco buildings & classic Spanish-style architecture.Language and DemographicsSpanish, particularly Cuban Spanish, is widely spoken in Miami.EconomyCuban migration has had a significant impact on Miami's economy, contributing to the growth of tourism, hospitality, and international trade. Many Cuban entrepreneurs have also established successful businesses in Miami, which has played a huge part in enriching the city's economic landscape and creating further diversity.The "Dark Side" of Miami and the Cocaine Cowboys Era.The Cocaine Cowboys era and drug trafficking had a significant impact on Miami during the 1970s and 1980s. It caused a surge of drug-related violence, crime, and corruption in Miami. Miami was the primary entry point for cocaine smuggling into the US for powerful drug cartels like the Medellín Cartel led by Pablo Escobar. This led to an explosion of wealth in Miami, led by the cartel individuals. It fueled a construction boom because drug profits were laundered through real estate investments, which led to the rapid development of luxury properties and businesses. However, it also contributed to a culture of excess, with conspicuous consumption and hedonism becoming more prevalent. Not to mention widespread violence as rival factions were fighting for control of the lucrative trade routes and markets.Law enforcement agencies really struggled to contain the violence and corruption associated with the drug trade. There were high-profile cases and efforts to crack down on drug trafficking networks, but it created "The Cocaine Cowboys era," which gave Miami a reputation as a city marked by both glamour and danger. It still lasts today.Myths About MiamiEveryone in Miami is WealthyMiami is home to many affluent individuals and neighborhoods, there is also significant socioeconomic diversity in the city. Many residents are working- or middle-class individuals who may not enjoy the lavish lifestyle often associated with Miami. Richer areas are Brickell, Key Biscayne, and parts of South Beach; Poorer areas are downtown and some parts of Wynwood.Miami is only about beaches and nightlife.While Miami is famous for its beautiful beaches and vibrant nightlife, it offers much more than that. It has a rich cultural scene, diverse neighborhoods, delicious cuisine, and a thriving arts community. You don't have to be a party animal to love Miami.All Miamians are Latino or Cuban.While Miami does have a large Hispanic population, including many Cuban-Americans, it is a melting pot of cultures from all over the world. You'll find people from various ethnicities and backgrounds living in Miami.Miami is Not Dangerous.Known by some as a "sin city," Miami can be dangerous, but not as dangerous as you may think. Miami is not on the FBI'S top 15 most dangerous cities list - which measures the violent crime rate and the highest cost of crime per capita, which includes instances of murder, manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. Like any major city, Miami has its share of crime, from drugs, gambling, etc, but it's unfair to label the entire city as unsafe. Many neighborhoods are safe and welcoming to residents and visitors. But as with any city, you must exercise common sense, and taking precautions is essential. You need to do your research, do not talk to strangers or get in cars with strangers, etc. Also, ignore creepy men trying to hit on you, or tell them no if they don't look too dangerous.Miami is all Glitz and Glamour.While Miami does have its glamorous side, with luxury hotels, high-end restaurants, and designer boutiques, it also has a laid-back, casual vibe. There are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the city without breaking the bank. You can explore parks, outdoor spaces, and museums and even go dining at local eateries and food trucks. There are free cultural events and art festivals as well. And don't forget the beaches are free (Key Biscayne, South Beach, Hollywood), minus the parking. Miami is only for the Young and Single.While Miami is known for its vibrant nightlife and party scene, it's also a great place to live for families, retirees, and people of all ages. The city offers excellent schools, diverse neighborhoods, and many activities for people of all ages and interests. You can't drive in Miami - The traffic is Too BadJust be careful where you park, and know that people honk a lot.The Best Areas in Miami for a Solo TravelerSouth BeachThis area is popular for its vibrant nightlife, beautiful beaches, and diverse dining options. You'll find plenty of opportunities to meet people at bars, clubs, and social events. However, it can get crowded and rowdy at times, so staying vigilant is important.Downtown MiamiDowntown offers a mix of entertainment, dining, and cultural attractions. It's also close to popular destinations like Brickell and Wynwood, which are known for their lively nightlife scenes. Choose accommodations in well-reviewed hotels or reputable Airbnb listings.BrickellThis upscale neighborhood is known for its high-rise condos, sophisticated bars, and restaurants. It's a popular spot for young professionals and offers a relatively safe environment for solo travelers.WynwoodFamous for its street art and hipster vibe, Wynwood is home to trendy bars, breweries, and galleries. It's a great place to meet fellow travelers and locals interested in art and culture. Just be mindful of your surroundings, especially at night.Coconut GroveThis historic neighborhood has a more relaxed atmosphere than South Beach. It has scenic parks, waterfront dining, and boutique shops. It's a good option if you prefer a quieter environment but still want access to nightlife and social activities.Hotels VS Airbnbs in MiamiFor a solo traveler, a hotel is safer, but it can be pricier than Airbnb, depending on where you want to stay. Airbnbs tend to be much cheaper for a group.Unique Destinations to Visit in MiamiVizcaya Museum and GardensThis historic estate features stunning gardens, European-inspired architecture, and unique photo opportunities around every corner.Versace MansionThe Versace Mansion is where world-renowned Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace was murdered on July 15, 1997. He was shot outside his Miami Beach mansion by Andrew Cunanan, a serial killer who took his own life eight days later. His South Beach mansion is now a "killer" lunch spot, and it's a great deal. Guests can also stay there. However, it is a pricy hotel.Coral CastleThis mysterious structure was built by Edward Leedskalnin using 1,100 tons of coral rock. The method of construction remains a mystery.Wynwood Walls The Wynwood Walls is an outdoor museum that showcases large-scale works by some of the world's best-known street artists, making it a vibrant spot for unique and colorful photos.Venetian Pool This historic public swimming pool built in the 1920s featuring waterfalls, caves, and incredible landscaping, providing a picturesque setting for photos.The KampongThe Kampong Botanical Garden features a collection of tropical fruit trees and flowering plants.Oleta River State ParkOleta River State Park is Miami's largest urban park along the shores of Biscayne Bay. You can kayak, hike, and picnic among mangrove forests.Deering EstateThis historic landmark and estate has guided tours of the mansion and gardens, as well as access to scenic trails along the waterfront.Miami Beach Holocaust MemorialThe Holocaust Memorial is a moving tribute to the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust, featuring sculptures and reflecting pools.The Monastery of St. Bernard de Clairvaux Originally built in Spain in the 12th century, this monastery was dismantled and reconstructed in Miami, creating a unique architectural juxtaposition.Grapeland Water ParkThis water park features a quirky collection of sculptures and structures, including a giant pineapple and a shipwreck-themed play area. It provides fun and unusual photo opportunities.Key Biscayne Crandon ParkCrandon Park is home to a unique fossilized reef and the historic Cape Florida Lighthouse. It offers hiking, picnicking, and wildlife viewing opportunities.Miami City CemeteryThis cemetery, dating back to the 19th century, features historic gravesites, elaborate mausoleums, and lush landscaping, providing a fascinating glimpse into Miami's past.SportsMiami has a strong sports culture, with teams like the Miami Heat (NBA), Miami Dolphins (NFL), and Florida Marlins (now Miami Marlins, MLB).Day Trips from Miami Everglades National Park Everglades National Park is a short drive from Miami. It's a unique ecosystem full of wildlife. You can take an airboat ride to see alligators, birds, and other wildlife or explore the park's trails and visitor centers. It's great if you are not from Florida and are used to seeing our wildlife, and it's great for a family trip as well.Key WestWhile it's about a 3-4 hour drive from Miami, Key West is worth the trip for its charming atmosphere, beautiful beaches, and vibrant culture. You can visit the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum, explore Duval Street, and relax by the water. Boat rides are fun as well.Fort LauderdaleOnly about a 30-minute drive from Miami, Fort Lauderdale has beautiful beaches, shopping, dining, and great cultural attractions. It also has Gulf Stream horse racing tracks, gambling, and the famous Hard Rock Guitar Hotel. Stroll along the Fort Lauderdale Beach promenade, visit the Bonnet House Museum & Gardens, or take a gondola ride along the city's canals.Biscayne National ParkLocated just south of Miami, Biscayne National Park is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. You can go snorkeling or diving to explore the park's coral reefs, take a boat tour to see the historic lighthouse on Boca Chita Key, and enjoy spectacular views of the ocean.Wynwood Arts DistrictIf you're interested in art and culture, head to the Wynwood Arts District in Miami. This neighborhood is one of my favorite Miami spots and is known for its colorful street art, murals, galleries, boutiques, and super trendy restaurants and cafes.Coral Gables Coral Gables is a beautiful and upscale neighborhood in Miami, known for its Mediterranean Revival architecture, greenery, and historic landmarks like the Venetian Pool and the Biltmore Hotel. Spend the day exploring the shops and restaurants along Miracle Mile or visiting attractions like the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden.How to Stay Safe in MiamiAreas of Miami to Avoid when VisitingHistorically known for its high crime rates, Overtown has seen some revitalization efforts in recent years but still may not be the safest area, especially at night. Liberty City is another neighborhood with a reputation for crime. While Little Havana is vibrant and culturally rich, there are many areas that are not safe, particularly at night. If you want to go, exercise caution and stick to well-lit, populated areas.Avoiding Certain Beaches at NightWhile Miami's beaches are beautiful during the day, most are unsafe after dark. Stick to well-populated areas and avoid isolated or poorly lit beach areas at night.Be Cautious of Scams and Tourist TrapsBe wary of overly aggressive street vendors, "free" tours that require a purchase at the end, and other similar schemes.Be Careful when Driving in Rush Hour TrafficIf possible, avoid driving during peak traffic times to prevent getting stuck in gridlock.Be Vigilant at NightWhile Miami's nightlife is legendary, some areas may be more prone to rowdiness and crime. Exercise caution and be aware of your surroundings, especially if you're out late at night. While Miami does have public transportation options like buses and the Metrorail, they are way less frequent and safe at night. Consider using rideshare services or taxis if you need to travel after dark, but don't get in an unregistered taxi, uber, or Lyft. Ask, "Who are you here for?" Miami can be a fun place to show off, and it's okay in certain areas like Brickell. Anywhere else, I would be extremely careful, and if you are new to the city, I would not wear your extremely fancy items. Cars also get broken into all the time, so do not leave things in your car. Better safe than sorry! In addition, don't take backroads at night.Bars can be safe to go into alone, but many female solo travelers get targeted in Miami, especially in bars and clubs. Don't take a drink from a stranger that you can't see being poured by the bartender. Also, men in Miami can be very aggressive, so be upfront with them and seek help from a bouncer if they will not leave you alone.What to Wear for A Night OutYour attire depends on where you are headed for the night. For clubs in Brickell and even South Beach, Ladies typically wear dresses or skirts and a top with heels, and guys wear nice shoes, buttoned-down short or long-sleeve shirts, and sometimes suits. Some clubs have strict "not too casual" dress code rules. For bars and any event in Wynwood, like a garage party, more casual clothes can be worn (e.g., rompers, shorts and tops, sneakers, and jeans and T-shirts for guys).Miami BeachesBeach Swimming in Miami When it comes to swimming in the waters off Miami's beaches, it's generally safe as long as you adhere to common-sense safety guidelines. While South Florida is known for its shark population, the risk of encountering a shark while swimming is very low. Most sharks are not interested in humans as prey and typically avoid interactions. Additionally, lifeguards and beach patrols in Miami are very vigilant about monitoring the waters and providing warnings or closures if any dangerous marine life is spotted.Favorite Miami BeachesMiami Beach is great for people-watching parties, meeting new people, good food, and all the action. It even has big events like pop up music festivals. For a more relaxed atmosphere, check out Key Biscayne. It is more relaxing, family-oriented, and has a great view of the Miami skyline. However, watch out for the "no-see-ems!" Beach TipsSome beaches, like South Beach, may experience higher theft rates, especially during peak tourist seasons when there are larger crowds. A few tips are to not leave valuables unattended, use lockers if available, and be mindful of your surroundings. Also, remember that local law enforcement and beach management often take measures to address theft. If you can not put items in a locker, do not bring valuables, and if you must bring valuables, like your phone and wallet, you can ask a normal-looking couple to watch them. It is taking a risk, but it has worked for me. Waterproof phone pouches are great for bringing a phone into the ocean. If you go into the water, stay where you can see your items. Do not let yourself drift far if you go into the water.Take the following precautions to ensure your safety while enjoying the beach:Swim in designated areas: Stick to beaches with lifeguards on duty and swim within the marked swimming zones.Avoid swimming alone: It's safer to swim with a buddy or in groups, especially in open waters.Stay alert: Be mindful of your surroundings while in the water and avoid areas with fishing activity or schools of baitfish, as these can attract sharks.Respect marine life: Avoid touching or approaching marine animals, including sharks, stingrays, and jellyfish.Follow beach safety guidelines: Pay attention to warning signs, flags, and instructions from lifeguards regarding water conditions and any potential hazards.Miami HurricanesIf you are visiting Miami when a hurricane hits, follow the steps below.Stay informed: Monitor local news, radio stations, or weather apps for updates on the hurricane's progress, including its projected path, intensity, and any evacuation orders or shelter information.Evacuation orders: Follow any evacuation orders issued by local authorities. Secure your accommodations: If you're staying at a hotel or rental property, inquire about their hurricane preparedness plans and follow any instructions provided by management. They may have protocols in place for guests during a storm.Stock up on supplies: Gather essential supplies such as non-perishable food, water, medications, flashlights, batteries, first aid supplies, and important documents. Ensure you have enough supplies to last several days in case of power outages or limited access to stores.Prepare your belongings: Secure outdoor furniture, decorations, and any other items that could become projectiles in high winds. If you're staying in a rental property, follow any instructions provided by the owner or management on securing the premises.Charge devices: Make sure your cell phone and other electronic devices are fully charged in case of power outages. Consider purchasing portable chargers or external battery packs for backup power.Stay indoors during the storm: Once the hurricane arrives, remain indoors in a safe location away from windows and doors. Follow safety guidelines: Follow any safety guidelines provided by local authorities, such as avoiding flooded areas, staying away from downed power lines, and using caution when venturing outside after the storm has passed.Be prepared for the aftermath: After the hurricane has passed, be prepared for potential flooding, debris, and other hazards. Follow instructions from authorities regarding cleanup efforts and any additional safety precautions.Miami stands as a captivating blend of magic and reality, where the dreams of visionaries like Julia Tuttle collide with the gritty realities of history.
